Real house prices during each national leader's tenure, worldwide
The leaders of 5 countries since 1991, ranked against one another by how real house prices changed from their first day in office, each on its own country's figures. Politare shows what happened during a tenure; it does not claim the office-holder caused it.

Showing 10 of 33 tenures.
Sorted by total, highest first. Rows measure house price indexes adjusted for inflation, where that is the series a country publishes; each place is read from its own statistics office's series (the row's chart names it), so a change is set against the place's own first day, never against another country's level. Every row is indexed to the last month, quarter or count complete before the first day in office ("from" marks a start that had to move because that period had no data, or because the period cut it). Changes are per cent; "per year" compounds them. Tenures with under 12 months, or under three observations, are left out. Data as of Sep 2026.
